Hi all, a bit worried about the Coastal we got from Mark(Fuscus). I had it out of the enclosure last night, and heard a whistling sound when it was breathing. I'm going to see if I can track down a vet here in the Riverland who knows anything about reptiles. I think the big guy might have a respiratory disease. We've had it now for at least 2 months - it has had one shed, but hasn't eaten at all. It rarely tastes the air with its tongue, which we find rather strange. It spends a lot of time in its water bowl, but moves around the enclosure a fair bit as well between the warm and cool areas. I hope I can find a good vet here, would hate to lose him. Cheers Cheryl
